Personal comments
Copenhagen University needs to work on finding international students if not nice, an ok place to live. Since the whole city lacks dormitory rooms for danish/international students, the university is placing the international students at private housing and most of my fellow international students found it unsatisfactory. I was lucky enough to get a room in a dormitory but I have heard so many complaints from other international students.
